Verve  Suggested by donshottype 

Don, Here's a fact for you. The font when it was first designed was named MGB Patrician. It was designed by Don Munson and his partner. The initials were for his wife, his daughter, and his partner. He gave Haber Typeshop in Manhattan exclusive use of it and in turn, they made it into a typositor font. Years later, Letraset made it into rub-on transfer type. That's about all I remember about it and can't even remember if it's accurate anymore... It's so many years ago.

Jackie, I had forgotten this. You are correct. Thanks for picking it up.

I made similar comments on the Typophile ID board -- back when it was thriving in 2014:

At the time I expressed concerns about the Steffmann digitization called Verve.

This time around I will fall back to the position that if Dafont hosts a font it can be identified as a match.

Perhaps at some stage the Dafont managers will review the status of the Steffmann fonts.
My point by point examination of a number of these has shown that they are cloned from digital fonts created by others and differ only in that there is a more extensive character set.

Don, I was only sharing. It was a part of my life when for 30 years I did typography in New York. The people are real! lol

The people on dafont don't know, and most don't care about quality - those days are long gone. They are not professionals but people are trying to be creative, and we try to help them. There is one other digitalized drawing of Verve.MGB Patrician it was made by OPTIFonts and probably not much better - however, I believe it contained ALL the alternatives.

By his own admission, that is precisely what he did. We used to call the resulting fonts "Dieterized."

"Dieterized" the term.
